暮光之城?暮色 第186期:第十二章 平衡(2)
“你們餓了嗎?”我問道，轉(zhuǎn)身向廚房走去。我渴望著逃離比利洞察的注視。
"Naw, we ate just before we came," Jacob answered.
“不，我們來之前剛吃過。”雅克布答道。
"How about you, Charlie?" I called over my shoulderas I fled around the corner.
“你呢，查理?”當我轉(zhuǎn)過拐角的時候，我越過肩膀向后喊道。
"Sure," he replied, his voice moving in the direction of the front room and the TV. I could hearBilly's chair follow.
“當然。”他應聲說道。他的聲音向著前廳和電視機的方向移動著。我能聽到比利的輪椅跟著過去了。
The grilled cheese sandwiches were in the frying pan and I was slicing up a tomato when Isensed someone behind me.
烤奶酪三明治已經(jīng)在煎鍋里了，我正在把一個馬鈴薯切片，這時我感覺到某人正站在我身后。
"So, how are things?" Jacob asked.
“那么，最近過得怎么樣?”雅克布問道。
"Pretty good." I smiled. His enthusiasm was hard to resist. "How about you? Did you finish yourcar?"
“相當不錯。”我微笑著說。要抵抗住他的熱情是件很難的事。“你呢?你的車弄好了嗎?”
"No." He frowned. "I still need parts. We borrowed that one." He pointed with his thumb in thedirection of the front yard.
“沒。”他皺起眉。“我還需要一些零部件。這輛車是我們借來的。”他用拇指指著前院的方向。
"Sorry. I haven't seen any… what was it you were looking for?"
“對不起。我沒看到什么……你要找的是什么?”
"Master cylinder." He grinned. "Is something wrong with the truck?" he added suddenly.
“制動缸。”他咧嘴一笑。“那輛卡車有什么問題嗎?”他忽然補充道。
"No."
“沒有。”
"Oh. I just wondered because you weren't driving it."
“哦。我只是有點懷疑，因為你不再開它。”
I stared down at the pan, pulling up the edge of a sandwich to check the bottom side. "I got aride with a friend."
我低下頭看著煎鍋，夾起一片三明治的一角，檢查朝下的那一面。“我搭一個朋友的車上學。”
"Nice ride." Jacob's voice was admiring. "I didn't recognize the driver, though. I thought I knewmost of the kids around here."
“好車。”雅克布的聲音里充滿了贊嘆。“但是我不認識開車的那個人。我想我認識這附近的大部分孩子。”
I nodded noncommittally, keeping my eyes down as I flipped sandwiches.
我含糊地點點頭，始終低著頭，給三明治翻面。
"My dad seemed to know him from somewhere."
“我爸似乎在什么地方認識了他。”
"Jacob, could you hand me some plates? They're in the cupboard over the sink."
“雅克布，你能遞給我?guī)讉€盤子嗎?它們就在水槽上的櫥柜里。”
"Sure."
“好的。”
